I wouldnt have thought that a lamb gyros souva could result in tanking but if you say so monkey then thats fine lol.

everyone should get over it, the seasons done and dusted, lets get the best picks possible and move on.

maybe they are listening to ramps and we are  TANKING

If they listen well, I can lead them to the promised land  ;D which in this instance could be the local charcoal chicken joint for a lamb gyros souvlaki at Lunch time  ;D

If you think that it is okay to tank then that is your opinion.
I think that to tank is gutless.
The more game we loss, the more we lose out on supporters and sponsor's.
Who wants their brand associated with a lossing mob of wanna be's.
If I was a sponsor I know I would be pulling the pin on us right now.

Personally, I had big hopes for this year, but the reality is that this season was gone weeks ago, Its also obvious that we still dont have enough talented players who are also competitive and hard workers throughout 100% of a game, in that instance and using the system at hand, it is better to tank, why because the 3 players we get in the first 20 may give us another Cotchin and another Rance, I would go further this year and say that we should try and finish dead set last, so we can get the first pick in the PSD, and try and lure a key forward from another club that is still young and maybe isnt doing as well as hed hoped or isnt getting the chances he expects, theres 2 two of those types at the moment in the AFL and Id be extremely pleased if we got 1 of the 2 via the PSD come seasons end.

I totally understand where you are coming from. Tigermonk said his son doesn't want to be drafted by us already.
So in saying that if we continue to lose how would that entice other players to come here to a losing culture.
I know I will be here for the long run but I'm not a player.
And players will not want to be here in this mess that we are in now.
I also think that we will be keeping sponsors away in the way that we are losing.
Last week was okay as we were away and put up a good fight. But last night was pathetic.
Tambling said when he was first drafted he wanted to be at the Bombers.
So what will stop others from not wanting to talk to us?

I don't know how to fix this all I can do is say what is on my mind.
And it could be wrong to, so I'm not saying what I say is right. Just my views on it.

Yep and thats fair enough as well, in the end, we just supporters, our club has been stuffed over by people who worked at the place since the early 1980s. I always go back to when we lost Cloke and Raines and Wood, we lost 3 stars - to do what- to go on a recruiting binge, getting players from Collingwood, none of whom had any success at Collingwood. In effect we traded stars and winners for average players from a losing culture- and no ones been able to fix it since.

I can remeber being so proud of our Tigers back then.
I still love them but it's a little embarassing to walk about with our shirts on in public.
As I have to do seeing most of my cloths have the tigers one them.
I will never leave our team. But our team is leaving us out to the vultures.
And it does get hard to defend them week in and week out.
But I will try my best.
If only we could bring back the 80's team to give us the shot in the arm we so badly need.

they had Cogs at full forward for 10 minutes in the third quarter.

That means nothing, all players want to get drafted by the team they support as a kid

Cotchin, Connors, Raines, Pettifer, Pattison, Brown ....... That's six out of 22 who aren't fit enough to play out a game. Is it really a surprise that we fade away and don't run hard enough in the second half?
